Somewhat Back In The Biz
« on: August 04, 2005, 02:22:20 pm »
well i've restarted my modding and have re-created the time mod with the updated cvs snapshots, plus added ship spin support with intro video patch  Wink

i'll be uploading a release and a debug version to yousendit.com so some people can take a crack at testing it.

i'll post the links when i have them uploaded which should take like 5 minutes to 10

hope you have fun

In case you have problems with this (since I see he still didn't cough up the runtime after being gived the clue), look around the net for:  MSVCR71.DLL  340K 1/12/2004

At least that's what I downloaded when I tried his last widget out.  If you have problems, get that file and put it in the same directory as UQM.EXE

What does what do, the Visual C++ runtime or Kohr-Ah Death's updated UQM executable?

The files marked "UQM Debug" and "UQM Release" are replacement executables with a modified UQM with slower time and support for 3DO ship spin videos. The file marked "CLICK HERE" is the Microsoft Visual C++ runtime library that you need to run the modified versions that Kohr-Ah Death has compiled with Visual C++ instead of MinGW the way any GNU-loving developer (including, I presume, UQM coredev) would.

thank you for taking that one Grin

i would use mingw but i just cant get it to work on my terms, i do everything the 'INSTALL.mingw'" asks, input the correct commands and it never works.

i tried it at least 5 times

FWIW, the release binary was compiled on MS Dev Studio 6.
I'm not familiar with the details for Windows myself, but I suspect the equivalent of MSVCR71.DLL was linked statically in our case.

Actually if I recall my history correctly, Microsoft didn't start in with runtimes for Visual C++ until version 7.0 (corresponding probably with .NET assemblies).  So compiling it with MS Dev Studio 6 probably wasn't a concern.

Of course, if Kohr-Ah Death wanted to, he could probably convert said DLL to a LIB file and then link that file in when he runs the link step for his compilation.
